First, process walnuts with a pinch of salt until fine crumbs. Then, add the remaining crust ingredients and process again until the batter sticks together when squeezed between fingers.

To make the filling, combine all ingredients in a bowl and process with immersion blender until smooth. You may also use regular blender.
